  1. Problem is, every game is a must win game for us, until we get to 55 points plus (remember York City getting relegated with fifty odd points ). Pessimism rules OK - well it does after supporting this lot for sixty three years.
  2. Just out of interest and by way of comment - look at Coventry with roughly the same players, since they changed management
  3. Following on from the above quote, and going back three / four years. We were still in the same division as now, but at that stage with higher gates. If then we had invested in the same calibre of players as Derbyshire and Baxter, and we would have had more money to do so, do you think we would still be in this division ? The chances are no we wouldn't - and l don't mean we would have been relegated. You need quality on the pitch to improve the product you are trying to sell ; you need a successful product on the pitch, which will attract more bums on seats. More bums on seats means more income, more income means more funds available in invest in more quality. You can have one of the worst grounds in the country, but if your team is successful, winning games, playing good football, pushing for promotion, then people will come to watch.
  4. Certainly do : as you look at the photo, l am down off to the left - out of shot. Those were the days when BP really rocked (no pun intended) with the noise made by the fans.
  5. So you're a supporter from Anyother United, who are thinking of buying one of our players. Would you come on this site, and expect to see an unbiased opinion as to that players ability etc, etc ! Scunthorpe's forums are no different from ours.
  6. I used to run a company with it's own web site. If our (re-launched ) web site had appeared looking like this, the guy responsible would have had an hour (at most ) to get it down and the original back. Failing which an exit door would have beckoned, faster than Bolt can run 100 metres.
  7. Has he gone to Millwall ? The People this morning were saying that Cardiff had come in for him. Unless l've missed it, nothing on OS.
  8. I saw him play at Chelsea, and he absolutely terrorised Chopper Harris - Harris couldn't get anywhere near him. By the end of the game, there were three Chelsea defenders trying to cope with him. Magic.
  9. Well, all the above should ensure that he has an absolute blinder on Saturday.
  10. BBC showing him has having signed for Swindon.
  11. They also stole the Clubs dictionary - hence why the club don't now know what the word " imminent " means.
  12. It is pointless because it adds absolutely nothing of substance to the topic. It is nothing other than a self indulgent pout.
  13. Didn't Joe Royle describe him as " our most naturally gifted striker " , or at least words to that effect.
  14. In Latics terms, that's being optimistic.
  15. No stadium to speak of : no team to speak of : but spanking new badge. Does this mean we've qualified for the Champions League this year already, through the bestest badge league ?
  16. Dickov owes us !!! Oh come on, this is football 2011 - it doesn't work like that anymore. If he's approached, offered, and he's interested, he'll be gone.
  17. Oxford Dictionary definition of sooner and origin : Origin: Old English sōna ‘immediately’, of West Germanic origin Author therefore appears to have, mislead, misunderstood and had very little understanding of the word and it's usage : clearly didn't go to Breezehill comprehensive, otherwise would have done better.
  18. I agree, but think of the extra pennies that the web site has generated as a result ! Or am l being just the tinniest bit ............ !
  19. But are we blessed with any that can score goals regularly ?
  20. I wonder if PD was aware of this upcoming announcement, before he put pen to paper ?
  21. And if things really, really really got bad, we could always ground share with the Rugby at their new ground
  22. If things really get bad, we could always ask Rochdale for a loan
  23. Stats, don't you just love them. Did you not know that 100% of the people who eat fruit end up dead. Proof positive that fruit is bad for you.
